CRUDE BIOGAS FLOWMETERING

Fares Ben Rayana

Abstract

The Biogas, also known as digester gas, is the gaseous product of anaerobic digestion (decomposition without oxygen) of organic matter. It is considered as a renewable energy source. GDF SUEZ is working actively on the development and recovery of this energy, drawing on synergies with the natural gas industry. In this context the CRIGEN had realized, for the first time in Europe, a complete study on a metering system for crud biogas (without any treatment). This study is carried out for ADEME and for three of the principal actors of treatment of waste in France (SITA, VEOLIA and COVED), and this, within the framework of the new lawful requirements relating to the valorization of the biogases produced in their dechetery.
